Find all the zeros of the function g(x)=x^3-4x^2-x+22

Answer:

x = -2, x = 3 − i√8, and x = 3 + i√8

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = x³ − 4x² − x + 22

This is a cubic equation, so it must have either 1 or 3 real roots.

Using rational root theorem, we can check if any of those real roots are rational.  Possible rational roots are ±1, ±2, ±11, and ±22.

g(-1) = 18

g(1) = 18

g(-2) = 0

g(2) = 12

g(-11) = 1782

g(11) = 858

g(-22) = -12540

g(22) = 8712

We know -2 is a root.  The other two roots are irrational.  To find them, we must find the other factor of g(x).  We can do this using long division, or we can factor using grouping.

g(x) = x³ − 4x² − 12x + 11x + 22

g(x) = x (x² − 4x − 12) + 11 (x + 2)

g(x) = x (x − 6) (x + 2) + 11 (x + 2)

g(x) = (x (x − 6) + 11) (x + 2)

g(x) = (x² − 6x + 11) (x + 2)

x² − 6x + 11 = 0

Quadratic formula:

x = [ 6 ± √(36 − 4(1)(11)) ] / 2

x = (6 ± 2i√8) / 2

x = 3 ± i√8

The three roots are x = -2, x = 3 − i√8, and x = 3 + i√8.

I NEED HELP WITH NUMBER 4​
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

4.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the height in inches of the model, you need to change the ration into a fraction:

\frac{1}{50}

Then try to figure out the value of the denominator in terms of the ratio:

\frac{1}{50} =\frac{x}{725}

In this equation we need to figure out how much the denominator of the fraction is changing by, by dividing 725 by 50. Then, multiply that by one:

4.5
